If the stat® of the boathouse and plant and the enthusiasm of members can be .taken as a criterion, it is surely safe to predict that the Otago Rowing Club will have a very successful season during the year it has now entered upon. It is abundantly evident to the visitor that a good deal of time and energy has been expended by some of the members recently, and the result of their efforts is very satisfactory. The plant has been thoroughly overhauled, and the boats all newly varnished, and with their freshly-painted riggers present a very fine appearance. The looker room has been painted and renovated, and the general training room and committee room have been papered and painted. In addition, the outside of the shed has also had attention, and a considerable sum of money must have been spent in building, a new grid and forming a new approach to the boathouse. New piles have also been placed under the boathouse. Taken as a whole, the present state of the boathouse and plant is a matter upon which the deputy-captain (Mr J. H. Browne) and Ids willing helpers deserve hearty congratulation. The weather was. rather dull and overcast for the official opening on Saturday afternoon, but the tranquility of the water was ample compensation for the.lack of sunshine. Mr F. W. Mitchell (the president of the club) declared the season open, and in. doing so congratulated the club on the fine state of the plant and boathouse, which, he said, had never been in a better condition. Delegates from other clubs in the harbour were entertained during the afternoon.

A number of old members were present, probably the oldest being the veteran “Bart” Provo, who was very keen in showing the young members how to use an oar, and intimated his intention of coaching a crew this season. Considering the fact that it was Labour Day week-end the attendance was very good.
